A member asked:

How can i effectively treat acne for good?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chronic disease: It will cure itself after several years or decades, but during that time, you must manage it. Your physician is your partner, and you need to know that whatever anybody else may have told you, it is not a lifestyle or hygiene related disease. Best wishes.
